Read Jane And The Unpleasantness At Scargrave Manor
Jane and the Unpleasantness at Scargrave Manor is the first in a series of mysteries by Stephanie Barron. In this mystery series our heroine, Jane Austin, finds herself in continuous mayhem, murder, and mystery. The first book in this series takes place right after Jane has rejected a marriage proposal and departs from the home of the intended husband. Jane anxiously awaits a pleasant visit with her newly married friend, Isobel Payne, Countess of Scargrove. What she doesn’t expect is two mysterious deaths! A well constructed and engaging mystery ensues. This series is recommended for open-minded readers who are looking for a fast-paced mystery with a bit of adventure.
On a visit to the estate of her friend, the young and beautiful Isobel Payne, Countess of Scargrave, Jane bears witness to a tragedy. Isobel’s husband—a gentleman of mature years—is felled by a mysterious and agonizing ailment. The Earl’s death seems a cruel blow of fate for the newly married Isobel. Yet the bereaved widow soon finds that it’s only the beginning of her misfortune . . . as she receives a sinister missive accusing her and the Earl’s nephew of adultery—and murder. “There’s plenty to enjoy in this crime-solving side of Jane. . . . [She] is as worthy a detective as Columbo.”—USA Today
